SteamWorld Dig 2. Everything you need to know is right there in the title, and it’s catchy, to boot! You control a Steam-powered robot, exploring the World by Digging… and because every great game deserves a seq […]

I still log into UO once in a while. I don’t have as much time as before but it’s still fun to run around sometimes. Before school, I had more time to participate with my guild in hunts and group activities. I still dream of pvp mobs at fel Yew gate and the old days of large faction warfare in cities.

Jbumi,
Thanks for sharing your story! I really enjoyed reading it. I know this is blasphemy to say…. but I’ve never played any of the FF games (!!!). Growing up, I did enjoy the Breath of Fire series. Glad to hear you’re still gaming! -

To this day, my father still tells people stories of me “kicking his grandma’s butt in Mario at only two years old!” I remember taking turns playing the original Zelda with my dad, slowly discovering hidden […]

Excellent article!
I clock in at just a few years older and definitely understand, all too well, the shift that happens as we continue to game and (unfortunately) age. I try oh so hard to relive the greatest moments of gaming I’ve experienced or simply try to create new ones but life gets in the way more often than not. Luckily, I do have more free time lately and found the Switch to be a reawakening to console/handheld gaming. It feels like a must have for us aging gamers.
Also, always glad to see another Ultima Online player around! That game ruled my life for many years..

When ESO came out, I played a TON in the first three months. My favorite thing was to go to Cyrodiil and pvp. Again, I just don’t have the time anymore. With ESO, even if I had the time now, though, it’d be harder to play… it went FTP and a lot of the skills (that enabled my type of playstyle) were overhauled. It might be fun to experiment with the new mechanics but all I remember was it being a big grindfest. I understand that has changed a bit… maybe one day I’ll find the time!
